Publisher's summary

J. R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood novels have introduced readers/listeners to a "different, creative, dark, violent, and flat-out amazing" (All About Romance) world.

Now, as the vampire warriors defend their race against their slayers, one male's loyalty to the Brotherhood will be tested - and his dangerous mixed blood revealed.

Rehvenge has always kept his distance from the Brotherhood - even though his sister is married to a member - for he harbors a deadly secret that could make him a huge liability in their war against the lessers. As plots within and outside of the Brotherhood threaten to reveal the truth about Rehvenge, he turns to the only source of light in his darkening world: Ehlena, a vampire untouched by the corruption that has its hold on him - and the only thing standing between him and eternal destruction.

Listen to another Black Dagger Brotherhood chiller.

Fabulous...

the last book in the series of the "Black Dagger Brotherhood" by JR Ward, was by far one of my favorites, I loved Rehvenge, his passion, his desires all balled up in a amazing story, I so did not want it to end.... I have all 7 audio books and see myself re-listening to them over again.

Another success for JR Ward!!

I read the book first and thought it was amazing! So much takes place in this book. It includes things about all of the brothers and Lash the head of the lessers is so complex. I love how she doesn't just write about the main character but all of them! I can't wait for her next book because at the end of this one you wish you could just keep going! I had to get used to the narrator but after listening to the other books in this series I'm getting used to him. This story is tied with the 3rd book about Zadist for my favorite. Definately worth every cent or credit!!

Never a bad BDB

Okay you just have to face the fact that in this series there's no bad book. This is a fantstic series. It's my FAVORITE series and I have to come back and re-visit it. It's so great that I now have it on Audible. I love every character and of course what girl wouldn't want her own??? So even though I've read them many times before, now I'll be listening, again and again........ after all some stories are just that good.

It was okay.

Not my favorite book so far. It was corny at times. Rehvenge and Ehlena made me power through it.

Editing???

This was a really good book in the series. The reader is also very good, however, the editing of this book was very bad. Some sentences jerk together and the narrator's tone would change so drastically that it was down right annoying!! If not for that, I would have given the book 5 stars.

Rev's Story

Would you listen to Lover Avenged again? Why?

Yes. I enjoyed reading this book. It is a lengthy book, lots of characters, plot, to follow. I'm sure there could be things I missed because of the volume. I will read it again.

Which character – as performed by Jim Frangione – was your favorite?

Writh, the blind king. He's gruff but smart and has a good heart.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No.

Any additional comments?

No.

Love the Audi-book but....

Ok let me say that I really do love this book and having it on iPod rules...but let me be real and say that the Narrator is a little corny sounding. I mean its the WARDen. Her books need to have a little edge and Urban swag. I love the Narrator in certain parts of the read but others it had me cracking up. I will still buy them with him though because the books are just that good. Rhev is the man!!!
